The Allegheny Conncllmnnle Bribery Oases They Will Come Before the Grand Jury This Jlonlh Cause of the Delay. The cases of It, E. Scandrett and William A. Hadfield before Mayor Pearson, of Alle gheny, charged with corruptly soliciting J. G. Ebbert to vote for Thomas A. Park for chairman of Allegheny Councils, is again attracting attention on account nf its failure to get before the grand jury at last term, bnt it is said not to be dead. Messrs. Haymaker and Fagan, of the Dis trict Attorney's office, explain how it came to fail at last term. Chief of Police Murphy had an agreement with Mr. Haymaker to fix the case for a hearing on a Thursday, and Mr. Fagan sent out notices accordingly, but subsequentlyattended the lawyers' piC Tlin and fnrfnt in farennre the lndinlmpnt and, of course, no MUNtvas found. A day t -was then fixed and the pdictment framed, but in the meantime Mayor Pearton had ". arranged to go to the seaside, and when the case came on with a lot of other suspended ' cases, neither prosecutor.nor witnesses ap- , peared, and finally the grand jury adjourned .' without taking action. , Both Messrs. Haymaker and Fagan now r? state that it will be acted upon by the pres- ' ent grand jury as soon as the jail cases are disposed of. The jail calendar always takes precedence of other cases, as it is a hardship for an innocent person to be kept long in jail awaiting trial, ana even those wno ex pect Jo be found guilty are supposed to be anxious to get through their misery as soon as possible. A DITORCE REFUSED, And an Unhappy linnbnnd Told Where Ho Made a Mistake. Judge Ewing yesterday refused a divorce in the case of Mrs. Frieda Stelzner against C. B. Stelzner, a music teacher, living at No. 545 Smithfield street. The couple were married September 18, 1888, immediately ' went to housekeeping, and six weeks later separated, Mrs. Stelzner returning to her home in Allegheny. The cause ot the sepa ration was a quarrel, in which Stelzner's stepmother was concerned, and abuse alleged to have followed. Judge Ewing, in his opinion, said: The husband does not appear to have heeded the law laid down by the apostle, that "for this cause a man shall leave father and mother and cleave unto his wife." He clove to his stepmother. If his conduct was snch as de tailed by his wife, it was very bad; such as would justify a court in ordering him to sup port his wife elsewhere until he would furnish her a suitable home and properly support and treat her. Continuing, Judge Ewing said that six weeks was a very short probation for a mar ried pair; also that such a case ol cruel aud barbarous treatment as to require the court to decree an absolute divorce bad not been made out The divorce was refused, and the costs placed on the husband. A divorce was granted in the case of Fred Opperman against Elizabeth Opperman. The couple were residents of Braddock. Desertion and infidelity were alleged. William L. Adams" sued for a divorce from his wife, Jennie Adams. Desertion was charged. A POSSIBLE CONFLICT. Tho County Will Force the City to Pare Ross Street. Judge White yesterday had a conference with the County Commissioners regarding the paving of Boss street the length of the Court House. The Judge stated that the constant noise of the wagons rambling over the cobble stones was intolerable and an in terference with the work of the court. The Commissioners stated that they had vainly $ inea to cei me street paved with asphauum, - bnt the city officials wonld not do it, nor give permission for anyone else to do so. . Judge White instructed District Attorney - Porter to have a presentment made by the grand jury, declaring the noise a nuisaace and ordering its abatement.

AUSTRALIAN GOLD SENT HERE. A Novel Scheme of Bankers to Secure Ex change on London. Sax Francisco, September 4. The large sum of $5,000,000 in treasure was brought by the Oceanic steamship Zealan dia, which arrived from Australia on Sat urday. This coin was consigned to banks of this city, who in turn have disposed of it to the United States mint at its real value. Shipments of similar large amounts will be made tor several months. The reason of these shipments is that Australian bankers find it cheaper to handle exchange on Lon don and other European cities via ban Francisco than direct to London. It is the custom among American bankers to sell exchange on London at from 60 to 90 days. Very little old gold is shipped to this city, the bankers buying it direct from the colonial mints, whence it is shipped direct to the San Francisco Mint and is accepted at its real value. It takes from 36 to 40 days to ship bullion from Australia to London, and but 25 days to San Francisco. While the bullion is on its way to this' point exchange on London is easily secured by the Australian bankers by cable, to pro tect drafts as they are presented. By this manner of operating exchange the Aus tralians save in freight, insurance and in terest, and usually have the advantage of favorable exchange on London. The propo sition to establish a fortnightly service be tween Sydney and San Francisco has for this reason been approved by the Colonial bankers, as it would permit them to enjoy more frequent correspondence. It is prob able that most of this money is for the pur chase of wheat The new Colonial sover eigns are thrown into the melting pot here and come out as American gold. GUESrS OF WANAMAKER. The President and Two Governor at HIa Conntry Home. Philadelphia, September 4. The train bearing President Harrison and Post master General Wanamaker and party ar rived here at 720 o'clock this evening en route to Jenkintown, Pa. A small but en thusiastic crowd had assembled at the depot, and when the train came to a stop a rush was madefor the rear car. The Presi dent made his appearance on the back platform, clad in a suit of gray and with a silk hat set back on his head. He had time to shake hands with only a few, when the signal to start was given and the train pulled out of the sta tion on the way to the country home of the Postmaster General at Jenkintown, about ten miles from this city, where th.s Presi dent and party and also Governor Beaver, of Pennsylvania, and Governor Green, ot New Jersey, will be entertained to-night by Mr. Wanamaker. In the morning the distinguished party will start in carriages from Mr.Wanamaker's house to the site of the old log college, near Hartsville, Fa., which was established in 1726 by Wm. Tennent, and the anniversary of which is to be celebrated to-morrow. CIGARMAKERS' UNION LABEL. The Decision of Judge Thayer, of St. Louis, Will Be Appealed. New York, September 4. Secretary Dampf, of Cigarmakers' Union No. 144, says tha,t the international body will not bow to the decision ol United States Circuit Court Judge Tnayer. The organization be gan action against a St. Louis manufacturer who was accused of counterfeiting the union's blue label on his cigar boxes. The Judge's decision was that it was not an offense to counterfeit the label. The case, Mr. Dampf says, will be taken to the United States Supreme Court. The union has won over a dozen cases against cigar manufacturers who used the label without authority. About two years ago Judge Dugro, of the Superior Court, decided that it was an offense to use the label without authority, or to counterfeit it. His decision has served as a basis for the decisions rendered in similar cases in sever al States since. Some time ago, however, a New Jersey judge decided that the label was not protected by law. The case has been repealed. KO KACK TROUBLES THERE. A Denial of the Bennatlonal Reports Sent Out From Alnbama. , CracisiTATi, September 4.

A Pittsburger Who Waa Surgeon on That Revenue Gutter. THE SEAL FISHERIES MONOPOLY. Seizure of Depredating Vessels Going on for Four lears. WHI ONLY ONE SEAMAN IS POT ABOARD A reporter for The Dispatch conversed yesterday with Dr. Paul M. Carrington, surgeon for the United States Marine Hos pital service in this city, who was, during the season of 1887, the surgeon of the reve nue cutter Bush, in Behring Sea. "The Bush," he said, "has been engaged -in just such work, of seizing depredators, for four years at least The American peo ple generally seem to be possessed of a num ber of erroneous ideas concerning the Bush. That vessel is not under jurisdiction of the Navy Department, and does not belong to the naval force. It belongs to the Bevenue Marine, which is a bureau or the Treasury Department It is the work of that bureau 'to prevent violations of the custom laws, to look after smugglers, and so on. Lieutenant Tuttle is usually spoken of, even in newspaper editorials, as the commander of the Bush. He is the execu tive officer. The commander is Captain L. G. Shepard. Both of these gentlemen are, of course, commissioned officers, receiving their commissions from the President. "Tbe situation in Behring Sea is this: The Government has leased to the Alaska Commercial Company the exclusive right to catch seals on four islands. Two of these islands, Otter and Walrus Islands, contain very few seals. The two larger islands, St. Paul and St. George, swarm with the fur bearing animals. There appear to be millions of them there. On these islands the company is allowed to kill 100,000 seals a year. On St Paul they kill about 85,000 and on St George abont 15,000. The com pany has a lease of the seal islands on the Bussian side of the sea, so that it HAS ALMOST A MONOPOLY of the seal fisheries. It seems that when the Government made this contract with the Alaska Commercial Company it agreed to protect them in their right. It is for. that reason that the revenue cutter Bush is kept in those waters. No other persons are al lowed to kill seals, except the natives, for food and clothing purposes. "The Alaska Company pays to tbe United Stater Government an annual stated sum of $50,000 I think it is, and (2 12 on each seal skin obtained. This makes an aggre gate sum of over $250,000 paid into the United States Treasury. The Government can afford to protect its lessee 'for that revenue. Formerly the company paid also 15 cents a gallon for seal oil, but I believe that it has quit saving that "There is no danger of extermination of the seals if the company alone is permitted to kill them. They are permitted to kill only male seals of a certain age. Three years is about the right age to kill them for their skins. The seals of different classes congregate on the rocks in separate 'rook eries.' That is the name given to their gathering places, where they sun themselves and take the air. The females and old balls go in one class, while the young males, or bachelors, go by themselves. The old males will not allow the young males to go near the females until they are about 5 years old. It is therefore an easy matter to find the young males alone and to slaughter them. "When a rcokerv is attacked a nartv of native, seal hunters are sent into the water J in front of tbe rocks where the seals are lying. By cries and splashing of the water the hunters frighten tbe seals inland to some level place, where they are herded up like a flock of sheep. Three or four men can herd a large drove of them. The killers then go to their work. They are experts, and can tell by an animal's nose what is itsage or sex. The killing is done by a sharp blow on the head with a club. It is A BATHER TBrlNO SPECTACLE for a novice. Tbe poor animals moan like human beings. As soon as they are skinned the blubber is carried away by natives. At Sitka choice skins in the raw state bring about 510. They are sent to London, where they are plucked, dressed and dyed. The manner of preparing them is a secret, and London workers have a monopoly of that business. "The seizure of intruders in tbe seal islands is not a new thing. It has been going on since 1886, at least. No luss was made about it prior to this season. Amer ican vessels as well as British are seized if they have been poaching. In 1866 three ves sels were seized. I think they were all British. Whether it was the Ensh or Cor win which made the seizures that year, I do not remember. "The next season I was on board the Bush. That year we made 12 seizures. Half of them were American and half Canadian. I think we took from those vessels from ?75, 000 to ?100,000 worth of sealskins. It was the rule to put only one man, as a prize crew, on board of a captured vessel. Captain Crawford was unable to do any better than that because he had a crew of only 35 men, hardly more than enough to operate the ves sel. That season we ran short of available men for prize crews, and had to order one Canadian vessel to go unaccompanied to Sitka. It ran away, just as some of them have been doing this year. I remember we had quite a laugh about it The seizure of the skins, however, is a considerable punishment on the pirates. The skins are confiscated at Sitka and sold by the United States Mar shal. Eleven of the vessels seized in 1887 went into the port of Sitka, and we had quite a fleet there when we got in at tbe end of the season. They were condemned by Judge Dawson, of the United States Dis trict Court Appeals were taken and have not yet been decided. Some ot the vessels still lie at Sitka, while -others were taken out in bond." btrnnger Than Fiction Is the fact that the business men of Pitts burg have to import stenographers from New York, Cleveland and Chicago because the demand is altogether in excess of the supply in this city. The Carry School ot Shorthand has had an attendance of nearly 250 students the past year and has filled hundreds of positions in the past two or three years with nrst-class writers, and has turned half as many business" men away empty, handed because every boy in the school who was at all proficient had secured a good position. Four applicants for stenographers have been turned away within a. week and as many positions have been filled with our graduates. Wby there are not more young men taking up the study of shorthand in Pittsburg is singular, when the fact stares us in tbe face that positions cavintr from S3 00 to 20 00 jer week are going begging. The Curry School ot Shorthand is the second largest shorthand school in tbe United States, and sends out the largest number of successful stenographers. Still the demand for young men is always greater than the supply. When we consider that the cost ot the whole course in shorthand and typewriting at "Curry" is less than one month's waces it is certainly the most remunerative profes sion any young man can adopt. The school is open day and evening, when catalogues can be had'by calling for them. 81. Until October. 81. Mothers, bring children to Aufrecht'i Elite gallery, 616 Market street, Pittsburg.

The Hudson river peach and grape crop is now being harvested. The predictions made early in the 'season that the grape crop in Ulster, Dutchess and Orange counties would fall short 50 per cent of a full crop are verified. The larger vineyards are showing a better fruitage than was expected, while the smaller vineyards are short. The peach crop is beyond the estimates given early in the season. The fruit now being shipped is excellent in flavor and size. Prices range from 50 cents to $7 per half bushel baskets. The fanoy sorts are packed in "pony" baskets holding abont a quarter of a bushel. These pack ages are shipped, two in a crate and Bell from $3 to $3 per crate. fTbus far fruit growers all along the Cen tral Hudson Biver Valley are doing mnch better than they anticipated. The acreage given over to peach tree cultivation is not large. Years ago nearly every farm of anv size contained a peach orchard of 1 to 20 acres. The failure of the crop for five successive years resulted in the digging out of thousands of trees. It is believed that thousands of young trees will be planted next spring, as the soil condi tions seem to be more favorable to the growth of -the trees than it was ten years ago. At Marlboro. Highland and Clinton dale grape cutting has been commenced. From this time forward thousands of tons of grapes will be cut, packed and shipped daily. ANOTHER K0BESPIERRE. Tbnt Is What a Sketch of the London Burns Appears Like. John Burns, who is at the head of the im mense army of strikers in London, is a work ing engineer by trade and a revolntionary Socialist by conviction. He is the self-appointed leader of the Workingmen's party in London. For ten years he has been a stump orator of the pavement and the parks. He has organized processions and marched at tneir neaa, waving tne red nag in aen ance of police regulations. He has contrived to get arrested several times for preaching the doctrine of dyna mite and for creating disturbances, and has neen in prison for inciting riot and publlo plunder. Now, since lie has been elected to tbe County "Council, and has hobnobbed with its titled members, he ha3 tempered his fire-eating tendencies with discretion. He volunteers his services in every strike, but hitherto he has had onlya few hundred strikers and a fluctuating following of tramps to control. Now he is disposed to keep the men order ly, peaoeful, but resolute, and his influence over them is enormouB, but should a crisis arrive and the famishing army break loose, Burns would not shrink at anything, and is tne very man to imagine nimseu a Kobe' spierre.

The Coroner Will Tako More Testimony In the Homestead Accident Cnusei Given for tho Explosion. Coroner McDowell continued the inquest into the cause of the deaths of the Home stead steel workers yesterday, but no de cision will be rendered before Saturday, when further testimony will be taken. E. F. Woods, superintendent of the con verting party, testified that the composition of the steel had been determined, but that had nothing to do with the boiling of the heat Manganese, he said, is used to take out the oxygen, but when there is some oxy gen left behind it unites with the carbon and produces ebullition. In his opinion, this is what produced the explosion. He does not believe water in the ladle caused the explosion. Manager Swabb confirmed Dr. Woods in his theory. Bobert Young said he relined a good part of the ladle on August 15, when it was in good condition. Bobert Hamilton relined the ladle the next day. He found the bricks in the bot tom burned off. They were warped a little at tbe top, hut not as much as he had seen in other ladles, and he. did not think there was room enough for water to collect be tween the bricks. A glaze collects on the fireclav which makes it waterproof. N. W. Shod, a smelter, testified that he saw the ladle at noon, when it was all right. This was about an hour before the explosion occurred. He had seen one like it before in New Hampshire. He thinks the accident was produced bv the action of the manganese and spiegel in the ladle when it should have united in the furnace. If there had been water in the ladle, he said, it would have splashed, but it didn't They were making high carbon cast steel. Henry Bost saw the men 20 minutes be fore the explosion putting a stopper in the fonr-hole of the ladle, and then they turned in the gasta dry it He thinks the gas ignuea irom we coi onexs.

KAUFMANNS' FIRM I I of the Clothing, Cloak, Shoe, Hat and Furnishing Goods trade not only in Pittsburg, but in entire Western Pennsyl vania, Eastern Ohio and West Virginia will be firmer than ever during THE COMING FALL SEASON for right now we are better prepared than ever to cater to and satisfy all classes and conditions of people. The number of those who patronize us increases daily. We have all along claimed that we were headquarters in this section for every thing pertaining to the various lines of goods handled by us. That we could, in sporting parlance, "see" our competitors and "go them one better." We claimed this because we believed it, hence it is most grati fying to us to find that the number of those who also believe it increases daily. JUST NOW WE ARE BUSILF ENGAGED in the successful attempt of converting into cash the balance of our stock of Spring and Summer Clothing. The heated term isn't over yet, Oh, no! Indeed, the thermometer during the past few days has ranged higher than- at any time this summer, and thin garments are not only proper but necessary from now until the cooler weather sets in. What do you want? An Alpaca, Seersucker, Pongee, Mohair, Flannel or Drap d'Ete Coat and Vest? You can buy any kind, grade or style for one half the regular price. .-. THE LIYELY SHOE TRADE .-. that we enjoyed all through the month of August still continues. This fact, in the face of the loud complaints about dull trade on the part of other dealers, is proof positive of the popularity of our goods and prices. It's the wonderful and matchless values we give that attract the masses to our store. Since the re-opening of the schools our trade in Boys' and Misses' School Shoes has been especially' heavy. We have sold several thousand pairs of our Boys' $i 50 and Misses' and Youths' $1 25 Shoes. They're the most comfortable and substantial solid leather footwear manufac tured and equal to anything sold elsewhere for double the money. FACTS ABOUT OUR NEW FALL HATS There is no mistaking the temper of the gentlemen of Pittsburg on the Hat question. They are determined to stop paying the gilt-edged profits of exclusive Hatters and buy their headgear at popular prices. Thus, for instance, our new Youman, Knox, Dunlap and "Little English" Derbys hit the taste and pocketbook of all sensible gentlemen to a dot Our prices for them range from $1 24 to 3 50, and the qualities are precisely the same for- which other hatters get from $2 to $5. All the latest novelties in Children's Hats a most bewildering pro fusion to select from at strikingly low prices. Nice, cute styles from 25c up." OFREE. We will continue to give a rubber (waterproof) School Bag. with every purchase in the Boys' department B'FREE Deautu an very amusing novelty will be handed every person passing our Grand Display at the Exposition.
